Start looking at the standard tools the AS/400 is providing, much is there inside the operating system. One usefull tool which I always order with a new AS/400 is called "Application development tools" (Licenced program 57xx PW1, xx changes with release level). Many tools can be bought, but I use mainly the build in tools.
